Hello, I am Rusty. I got message from Cosmin. Thank you for kind invitation, Cosmin.

Of course, I am not the real Rusty Cooley who is a great guitarist. I am a 28 years old Korean and just borrow his name.

I am not a professional guitarist. I played guitar only 3 years in a school band in the past as a hobby and stopped playing for 7 years. Now I am trying to start playing again.

One day, I searched some instruction videos in google and found Muris's extreme neoclassical. It fascinated and motivated me and I decided to become a member of GMC.

I am interested in shredding style play and I think it looks and sounds really cool!!

My favorite guitarist is of course Rusty Cooley. I like his 'under the influence'.

And I like Jason Becker and Michael Angelo Batio, too. Jason's Altitude and Michael's Prog are the greatest musics I have ever listened to. I would really appreciate if somebody posts instruction videos for those musics.

My techniques are poor yet. The fastest alternate picking I can play is 16th notes with tempo 140. and I can barely do sweep picking with that speed.

I just started practicing Muris's extreme neoclassical a few weeks ago. Now I can barely play it with tempo 90. I still have a long way to go.

Wellcome to the site "Rusty" I think Your nick name will make a little funny mess in the forum Let's keep it secret that You're not "THE ONE" Muris is an insane player. Very good influence to improve Your playing! Remember - if any help needed (Or should I say when) just ask on the forum and send private messages to the instructors. It would be great if You could share some of Your playing

My eyes lit up when I saw "Rusty Cooley" might be in this thread. Well, I am a fan of his Rusty's playing and the others influences you mentioned. You'll find some great lessons covering Becker and MAB here. Welcome to GMC!!

Hi mate! Welcome to the site! We already have lots of lessons covering those styles, at different levels. I think that you should check your level compared to GMC lessons and start working on lessons that cover Alternate Picking, Sweep Picking, Tapping, Legato, Bending & Vibrato. Technique is VERY important in the style that you want to play but also you have to incorporate major & minor scales, harmonic minor, diminished and some modes like Lydian and Mixolydian.

I'm glad you decided to introduce yourself You chose well with Muris and as the guys said, we will ALL be able to help you improve if you could share some of your recordings with us. See you around the forum mate

Welcome! I'm Todd Simpson and I teach our Sat/Sun Vid chats and I wanted to invite you to join us!! We do a lot of semi crazy picking/drilling and Sat is crazy day while sunday is more about basics. Hopefully
